Thanks kin, it really is a shame though.

For me to farm a Steelscale Crushfish I got to have 75-150 fishing with the new fishing loot tables, I'm maxed fishing for F2P and really cbb unlearning my profession.

I guess ill leave my dual-fish whacking fantasies for now, ill get back to it another time when I have the time to re-learn fishing.

Wait, what? If your fishing is too high, you can't fish up rares? Half my toons have 375 fishing...

New fishing pools have been updated with WoD.

Basically in DMF (and other fishing pools) the loot is consistent with your fishing level bracket, every 50-70 fishing levels you grow (or if you buff yourself), you will notice the fish common's you loot will be different.

You can't unlearn fishing. You can catch Steelscale Crushfish - Item - World of Warcraft with any level fishing in the right zones.

 

[Domunique]

Aradiel your right.

Recently on Wowhead some guy claims to of caught it in wetlands with a fishing level of 1000.

Interesting.

The only instance of the 6 strength 7 stamina cloak that I could actually find that exists is the version that drops from the Horde quest that also gives Ring of Pardons (Garrosh's Pardon).

Apparently there is a cloak from a Barrens quest that scales to 7/7.

cheers, i just went and did the quest for ring of pardons and got the cloak. just playing around with gear on a horde ret.

 

[paranoi]

its the mutineer's cloak that scales to 7/7,
the heart wrapper from azashara quest chain also potentially scales to 7/7, but it hasn't been checket yet.

Hi, does anyone know how make of this healing macro: #showtooltip Flash of Light
/cast [mod:ctrl] [target: self] Flash of Light functional, so that when I press ctrl and E it heals me only. The WoW system says the [target: self] is unknown command for some reason even when I tried to change ''self'' with ''Haraf''
I made this macro because sometimes in heated battles when I'm fighting alongside with a teammate in a specified area of a bg, I just sometimes don't notice that I get bursted and want to heal myself asap without changing my current ally target, instead of changing to target myself or pressing esc all the time.

alt is the default self-cast key. should be in your interface options.

I know about that option. I thought I could use with ctrl close to shift key, which are the keys I use often (prefence)to heal myself. I never used alt key and it's an inconvient button to heal myself up quickly imo.

This isn't a direct answer to your question, but I want to throw this out there in terms of healing with macros in general. Other people might have a different philosophy about this, but I have used this macro as a priest, rdruid, and monk, and I find it to be the most effective way of healing.

All my healing macros follow this pattern with just the name of the spell changed:

#showtooltip
/cast [@mouseover, help][@player] Regrowth

This will throw a heal at your mouseover, which for me is 99% of the time their raid frame on the left of my screen. If I want to heal myself, simply having the right mouse button down for mouselook (which I have 90% of the time) means I have no mouseover, therefore it's a self-heal.

Note: I NEVER heal someone by directly targeting them. There's a lot of reasons why this is a bad idea IMO in a combat situation. Even if I'm healing a dungeon, I target the current mob and heal party members by their raid frames.

You should give it a try, I think once you get used to it you'll wonder how you ever did it another way.

I always use [@playername]. I believe you can use [@player] also which is much cleaner when modifying macros across multiple toons. I've honestly been too lazy to try that one though.

so you might try:
/cast [@Haraf, modifier: ctrl] Flash of Light (not sure if you have to spell out "control".)

That works well if you are combining two abilities or targets onto one button with a modifier

You could also just make it:
/cast [@Haraf] Flash of Light
and just set a specific keybind for that button, say control E

Hope that helps. You are welcome to PM me with any questions. I use a lot of macros.

edit: also what Kincaide said.

Nvm I already found the solution by changing the default alt key to ctrl. I just thought you could make of it a functional macro, that's it.

I had flash of light binded to F4 whole cataclysm... Every time I used the alt key to self heal my game crashed and I couldn't understand why...

What happened to all the alliance hunters? I see maybe one per game if I'm lucky.

btw to all the rogues farming defias gear:

I guess I'm not the first person to find this bug but I tried to search for it and didn't find it.

The defias overseer mobs in the Deadmines (normal lvl 15 version) are the only mobs who continue to drop Defias leather set pieces.

The mob I am referring to is the neutral (non-hostile) defias overseer, between the 2nd and 3rd bosses in the deadmines.

Sadly they only drop the gloves and legs. Usually you can only kill 2 of these mobs (with a 2% drop chance per mob that they will give you either of the pieces) per dungeon clear. I discovered that if you sap one mob, kill the other, and then reactivate stealth, that the mob which you sapped will reset and another overseer mob will spawn. This means you can kill an overseer mob every 5 seconds rather than killing 2 mobs every few minutes (usually you have to clear up to the mobs and then run out and reset the dungeon).

This seems to be because the overseer mobs have a script where they have a 2-way conversation, and the one mob left alive after you restealth requires a second mob to interact with. I discovered this by accident when I was leveling a new character and attacked these mobs, killed one but the other bugged out and evaded until it reset, causing a third overseer to spawn.

Taken from Ownedcore and credit to Fishman29 there.

btw to all the rogues farming defias gear:

This is awesome and a great find! I've been farming the overseers constantly for the last week or more.

Unfortunately I've been doing so on a monk, not a rogue. I can't think of any way to leave combat. Killing one and dying to the other might work, but I don't know if that's appreciably faster than... oh hell, I'm just going to try it. Reporting back later.


Edit: Long story short, it works. It takes me about 7 minutes for a round trip of normal killing two overseers, leaving and resetting the instance. But by killing up to the overseers once, then killing one of them and dying, I can then run back and kill one more (they do respawn) in about 1:40 including dying and running back. So if you don't mind racking up your character's death stats (and who does, really) then you can totally kill to the overseers, get naked, and farm one all day.

2nd Edit: Actually I was wrong. I forgot about the transporter at the beginning. I can actually do a circuit in less than a minute. That's one Overseer every minute. This is fantastic.
